Fatima: The Blood Spinners #2

The second chapter of Gilbert Hernandez's four-part sci-fi horror series announces itself with a cover that's hard to shake: a massive, blood-drenched zombie face fills the frame, its hollow eye socket reflecting a calm, weapon-wielding Fatima haloed in brilliant yellow — a striking visual contrast between the monstrous and the determined. Hernandez handles every line himself, and that total creative ownership shows in the fearless, pulpy confidence of the image. If issue one had you hooked, this one makes it clear the series has no intention of easing up.
